Lots 'O Pics of the New Sony Qualia 010 *not for broadband challenged*

New headphone of SONY (pics)~
As some have already deducted, Qualia is a wholly new brand under the Sony umbrella catering to the discerning, style-conscious, noveau riche crowd who are willing to pay more -MUCH more- to distance themselves from the Fry's and Circuit City proletariate, so to speak There's even a Qualia...- Beto

Zu Mobius breaking time
First off, my apologies as this might have been covered a million times here at Head-Fi, but as the forum still lacks enabling of search (how come?) I have no other choice... You see, I just got an used pair of HD600s from a respectable Head-Fier, and along with it, for a number of reasons I...- Beto

slight crackle in my HD600's
Good to know Ed - I'm just enjoying my newly arrived HD600s and I would just freak out if I had such a thing happen... Bought it used, but no "crackles" so far - just great music- Beto

Just got notice my HD600s arrived here... but being this an import from USA, now I have to go wrestle with unsurmountable import tariffs, hostile customs, and what not... Not that I'm surprised - that's standard procedure for anything electronics-related, but it always sucks all the same...- Beto

the HD 280
I have been thinking to get a pair of 280s (once I recuperate from the 600s+ Zu investment) for the office. What interests me most about these is that they claim to have one of the best noise isolations out there, and that's definitely something I'm after, having an A/C behind me all day long...- Beto

Looking for Sennheisers and advice
Great advice here so far, thank you very much. However I need to decide on this quick... I just found this thread (and another) comparing the Cardas vs. the ZU Mobius cable. It is evident many guys here prefer the Zu, maybe because it seems to sound more "forward" or "punchy". In my personal...- Beto
